Saltwater-barrier line in Florida: Concepts, considerations, and site examples
Jerry L. Hughes
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 79-75
Construction of canals and enlargement of streams in Florida has been mostly to alleviate impact of floods and to drain wetlands for development. Land drainage and heavy pumpage from coastal water-table aquifers has degraded potable ground and surface water with saltwater. Control of saltwater intrusion is possible through implementation of...
Flood of July 5-7, 1978, on the South Fork Zumbro River at Rochester, Minnesota
V.J. Latkovich
1979, Open-File Report 79-1583
The intense thunderstorm of July 5-6, 1978, caused record flooding on the South Fork Zumbro River at Rochester, Minnesota. The peak discharge on July 6 was 30,500 cubic feet per second compared with 19,600 cubic feet per second for the flood of March 1965, which was the largest previously known....
Hydrologic data for floods of July 1978 in Southeast Minnesota and Southwest Wisconsin
V.J. Latkovich
1979, Open-File Report 79-1166
Intense storms of July 1978 caused floods of historical significance in southeast Minnesota and southwest Wisconsin. Local, State, and Federal officials need data and information to evaluate, coordinate, and manage programs concerned with floods and flood losses. Because of a need to document stream discharges, elevations, and sediment concentrations, current-meter...
Relation between proposed developments of water resources and seepage from the All-American Canal, eastern Imperial Valley, California
Omar J. Loeltz, S. A. Leake
1979, Open-File Report 79-744
A two-layer digital model designed for this study indicated that sealing of the Coachella branch of the All-American Canal would cause an eventual increase in seepage from the All-American Canal of about 15,000 acre-feet annually. Sealing of both the Coachella Canal and the segment of the All-American Canal between Pilot...
The brightness of lights on Earth at night, digitally recorded by DMSP satellite
Thomas A. Croft
1979, Open-File Report 80-167
The U.S. Air Force has operated its Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) for nearly a decade, and film images from the system have been openly available since 1973. Films are well suited for the study of weather, and users of such films have derived much useful data. For many potential...
The Yampa River basin, Colorado and Wyoming : a preview to expanded coal-resource development and its impacts on regional water resources
Timothy Doak Steele, D. P. Bauer, D.A. Wentz, J. W. Warner
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-126
Expanded coal production and conversion in the Yampa River basin , Colorado and Wyoming, may have substantial impacts on water resources, environmental amenities, and socioeconomic conditions. Preliminary results of a 3-year basin assessment by the U.S. Geological Survey are given for evaluation of surface- and ground-water resources using available data,...
Drainage areas of streams in Arkansas, Ouachita River basin
John J. Yanchosek, Marion S. Hines
1979, Open-File Report 80-334
Drainage areas, determined in accordance with procedure recommended by the Subcommittee on Hydrology of the Federal Inter-Agency River Basin Committee, are listed for points on streams in the Ouachita River basin in Arkansas. Points on the streams are identified by some topographic feature and by latitude and longitude....
Water resources data for Florida, water year 1978; Volume 3A-2. Southwest Florida surface water
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1979, Water Data Report FL-78-3A-2
Water resources data for the 1978 water year for northeast Florida consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; elevation and water quality of lakes and reservoirs; water-levels and water quality of wells; and discharge and water quality of springs. Additional water data were collected at various...
Federal onshore oil and gas lease bonus bids, 1972-1977: Statistical studies
John Lohrenz, John A. Pederson
1979, Open-File Report 79-1251
We studied the statistical behavior of Federal onshore oil and gas lease bonus bids. Like offshore bids, these bids exhibited (a) occasional occurrences of low, noise bids, (b) apparent lognormality, (c) standard deviations (using natural logarithms) close to one, (d) apparent disparities between money left on the table given random...
Flood profiles along the Cedar River, King County, Washington
O.C. Hettick
1979, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-84
Flood profiles on the Cedar River, King County, Wash., were developed from 21.1 to 33.65 miles upstream from the mouth for the flood of December 3-4, 1975, and for a 100-year flood. Estimated water-surface elevations during a 100-year flood indicate virtually all the flow would be contained in the river...

1979, Open-File Report 79-385
This report represents a joint effort by the OSMS, CDMG and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The report summarizes all strong-motion accelerograph records recovered from the August 6, 1979 Coyote Lake earthquake.
